Hashbrown Egg Cups Recipe
These Hashbrown Egg Cups are a perfect breakfast option or brunch dish. They’re easy to make, full of flavor, and customizable with your favorite toppings.
Ingredients:
- 2 cups frozen hashbrowns (or freshly shredded potatoes)
- 1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese (or your favorite cheese)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil or butter
- 4 large eggs
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder (optional)
- 1/4 teaspoon onion powder (optional)
- Fresh herbs or chopped green onions for garnish (optional)
Instructions:
-
Preheat the Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and lightly grease a muffin tin with cooking spray or butter.
-
Prepare the Hashbrowns:
- If you're using frozen hashbrowns, make sure they are thawed and drained well of any excess moisture. You can squeeze them in a clean kitchen towel to remove the moisture.
- In a bowl, combine the hashbrowns with shredded cheese, olive oil (or melted butter), salt, pepper, and optional garlic powder and onion powder. Mix well until everything is evenly combined.
-
Form the Hashbrown Cups:
- Divide the hashbrown mixture evenly between the 6 muffin tin cups. Press down firmly to form a nest-like shape, ensuring the hashbrowns create a cup shape in each well.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the hashbrowns are golden brown and crispy around the edges.
-
Add the Eggs:
- Once the hashbrown cups are baked, carefully crack one egg into each hashbrown cup. Sprinkle a little more salt and pepper on top of the eggs.
- Return the muffin tin to the oven and bake for an additional 8-12 minutes, or until the eggs are cooked to your desired level of doneness. For runny yolks, check at 8 minutes; for fully cooked yolks, check at 12 minutes.
-
Garnish and Serve:
- Once the egg cups are done, remove the muffin tin from the oven. Let them cool for a few minutes.
- Garnish with fresh herbs, chopped green onions, or a little extra cheese if desired.
Serving Suggestions:
- Serve these Hashbrown Egg Cups with a side of fresh fruit or a simple salad for a well-rounded meal.
- You can also add cooked bacon, sausage, or vegetables to the hashbrowns before baking for added flavor.
These Hashbrown Egg Cups are a great way to start your day with a filling and flavorful meal that’s easy to customize to your taste. Enjoy!
